2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website
2.1 When you use our website for informational purposes only—that is, if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information—we collect only the data that your browser transmits to the website server (so-called “server log files”). When you visit our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:
Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data is not disclosed or used for any other purpose. However, we reserve the right to review the server log files retrospectively should there be concrete indications of unlawful use.
2.2 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (e.g., orders or inquiries to the controller), this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the “https://” prefix and the lock icon in your browser address bar.
3) Hosting & Content Delivery Network
We use a provider to host our website and display its content; this provider delivers its services—either directly or through selected subcontractors—exclusively on servers located within the European Union.
All data collected on our website is processed on these servers.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our website visitors’ data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
4) Cookies
To make your visit to our website more enjoyable and to enable the use of certain features, we use cookies—small text files that are stored on your device. Some of these cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser (so-called “session cookies”), while others remain on your device for a longer period and allow page settings to be saved (so-called “persistent cookies”). In the latter case, you can find the storage duration in the overview of your web browser’s cookie settings.
If personal data is also processed by individual cookies we use, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR either for the performance of the contract, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR in the event that consent has been given, or in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in ensuring the best possible functionality of the website as well as a user-friendly and effective design of the site visit.
You can configure your browser to be notified when cookies are set and decide individually whether to accept them, or to exclude the acceptance of cookies in specific cases or generally.
Please note that if you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be limited.
5) Contacting Us
When you contact us (e.g., via the contact form or email), personal data is collected. The specific data collected when using a contact form is indicated on the respective contact form. This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of responding to your inquiry or for establishing contact and the associated technical administration.
The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Your data will be deleted after your inquiry has been fully processed. This is the case when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively resolved and provided that no statutory retention obligations preclude this.
6) Use of Customer Data for Direct Marketing
Subscription to Our Email Newsletter
If you subscribe to our email newsletter, we will send you regular updates about our offers. The only required information for receiving the newsletter is your email address. Providing additional information is voluntary and is used to address you personally. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to send the newsletter. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter once you have expressly confirmed that you consent to receiving the newsletter. We will then send you a confirmation email asking you to click on a link to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter in the future.
By clicking the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. When you subscribe to the newsletter, we store the IP address provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of your subscription, so that we can trace any potential misuse of your email address at a later date. The data we collect when you subscribe to the newsletter is used exclusively for the purpose of sending you promotional communications via the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by clicking the link provided in the newsletter or by sending a message to the data controller named at the beginning of this notice. Once you have unsubscribed, your email address will be immediately deleted from our newsletter distribution list, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data for other purposes that are permitted by law and about which we inform you in this statement.
7) Web Analytics Services
Google Analytics 4
This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”), which enables an analysis of your use of our website.
By default, when you visit the website, Google Analytics 4 sets cookies, which are small text files stored on your device and collect certain information. This information includes your IP address, although Google truncates the last digits to prevent direct identification.
The information is transmitted to Google’s servers and processed there. This may also involve transfers to Google LLC, which is based in the United States.
Google uses the collected information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for us, and provide other services related to website and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics and truncated is not merged with other data from Google. The data collected through the use of Google Analytics 4 is stored for a period of two months and then deleted.
All processing described above, in particular the placement of cookies on the device you are using, takes place only if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.
Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your visit to the site. You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect. To exercise your right of revocation, please deactivate this service using the “Cookie Consent Tool” provided on the website.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google that ensures the protection of our website visitors’ data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
Further legal information regarding Google Analytics 4 can be found at https://business.safety.google/intl/de/privacy/, https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de, and https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Demographic Features
Google Analytics 4 uses the special “demographic characteristics” feature and can use it to generate statistics that provide insights into the age, gender, and interests of website visitors. This is done by analyzing advertising and information from third-party providers. This allows target groups to be identified for marketing activities. However, the collected data cannot be attributed to any specific individual and is deleted after being stored for a period of two months.
Google Signals
As an extension of Google Analytics 4, Google Signals may be used on this website to generate cross-device reports. If you have enabled personalized ads and linked your devices to your Google account, Google may, subject to your consent to the use of Google Analytics pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, analyze your usage behavior across devices and create database models, including those related to cross-device conversions. We do not receive any personal data from Google, only statistics. If you wish to stop cross-device analysis, you can disable the “Personalized ads” feature in your Google Account settings. To do so, follow the instructions on this page: https://support.google.com/My-Ad-Center-Help/answer/12155764?hl=de

UserIDs
As an extension to Google Analytics 4, the “UserIDs” feature can be used on this website. If you have consented to the use of Google Analytics 4 in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, have set up an account on this website, and log in to this account on various devices, your activities—including conversions—can be analyzed across devices.
For data transfers to the United States, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with European data protection standards based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission.

9) Tools and Miscellaneous
Cookie Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called “Cookie Consent Tool” to obtain valid user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The “Cookie Consent Tool” is displayed to users when they visit the site in the form of an interactive user interface, where consent for specific cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be granted by checking boxes. When using the tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are loaded only if the respective user grants the corresponding consent by checking the boxes. This ensures that such cookies are set on the user’s respective device only if consent has been granted.
The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this process.
If, in individual cases, the storage, assignment, or logging of cookie settings does result in the processing of personal data (such as the IP address), this is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies and, consequently, in the legally compliant design of our website.
Another legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically non-essential cookies contingent upon the user’s consent.
Where necessary, we have entered into a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our website visitors’ data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
Further information about the operator and the settings options for the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.
10) Rights of the Data Subject
10.1 Under applicable data protection law, you have the following rights as a data subject (rights of access and intervention) vis-à-vis the controller with regard to the processing of your personal data; please refer to the cited legal basis for the respective conditions for exercising these rights:
10.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT
IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF A BALANCING OF INTERESTS DUE TO OUR OVERRIDING LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO SUCH PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.
IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL CEASE PROCESSING THE DATA IN QUESTION. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE PROCESSING IF WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING IS NECESSARY FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS.
IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING. YOU MAY EXERCISE THIS RIGHT AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL CEASE PROCESSING THE RELEVANT DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES.
11) Duration of storage of personal data
The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing, and—where applicable—additionally by the respective statutory retention period (e.g., retention periods under commercial and tax law).
When processing personal data based on explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, the data in question will be stored until you withdraw your consent.
If there are statutory retention periods for data processed in connection with contractual or quasi-contractual obligations pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, such data is routinely deleted upon the expiration of the retention periods, provided that it is no longer necessary for the performance or initiation of a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in continuing to store it.
When processing personal data based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, this data is stored until you exercise your right to object under Article 21(1) of the GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.
When processing personal data for the purpose of direct marketing based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, this data is stored until you exercise your right to object under Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
Unless otherwise specified in the other information in this statement regarding specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
